Session Overview
We at the SLO Beaver Brigade are looking for a skilled volunteer to help us figure out our next steps for growing and professionalizing our non-profit organization. We would like to discuss our needs as an organization as well as our successes thus far. Our main goal for the conversation is to make a plan for moving forward with a strategic plan and an approach to fundraising/grants.
Nonprofit Overview
The SLO Beaver Brigade is dedicated to supporting beavers and stewarding wetland health as demonstrated by the beavers. We do so by:
1. educating our county on the benefits of beavers to our watersheds
2. leading educational walks out to beaver ponds
3. supporting research of beavers and wetlands
4. organizing stewardship events such as river and creek cleanups and invasive removals
5. educating folks on coexisting with beavers and installing beaver management tools
6. implementing beaver-based restoration techniques.
We are continually learning from the beavers how to be good stewards of our watersheds and we empower those folks who love our waterways to become stewards themselves.
